How is Devil Survivor 2? I might be getting Record Breaker, but I wanna know what I'm getting into.
 
Take Devil Survivor 1 + Persona 3-4 Social link mechanics and you have DS 2

Oh no

not the Social Links

anything but the Social Links
 
it has Jungo
And also Jungo's cat, Jungo
I'd say it's pretty okay on that alone
 
also, I think demon auctions are way more fun than demon negotiations.
 
i mean it's also an SRPG
and i hate those with a burning passion
but also
Jungo and his cat, Jungo
so you know
a toss-up
 
at least most of the battles aren't left up to chance and you can actually choose what your characters do in a fight, especially when they are attacked. unlike FF Tactics.
 
they should make a game with social links
where the final boss gets stronger the more social links that you complete
but if you decide to be an anti-social dweeb
the final boss just laughs at you for having no friends
and the game ends right there
 
no but see this time they're not social links they're called fates

it's totally different guys

I'm...also kinda growing on demon negotiations after Nocturne, but maybe that's because it's so easy to cheese them by using Brainwash at the endgame.
 
Soul Hackers has the easiest negotiations. You'd be hard-pressed to find something that didn't join you by the end of the conversation, and if you had too many demons at the time? They'd just come back later when you've got room.
 
demon auctions are more fun.
it's not slavery if they're not people!
 
One thing I don't care for about the DS games at first glance is the art style. The characters all look really pale and sickly. Not to mention the infamous ANTI-GRAV BOOBS.
 
DS's art is so off-putting for which is strange since the art for Durarara! is so inoffensive
it's like he art evolved backwards
 
tbh, I like it.
the most negative thing I can say about it is that the characters look like side characters with a special accessory.
also, the MC in DS2 looks like the new MC for P5.
'cept y'know, with glasses.
 
Funny, since the MC in DeSu1 looked a lot like the MC for P3. Just without the emo bang thing.

By the way Izaya, Shizuo and Celty will appaer in Break Record, it's official.
 
Beat Nocturne and got the True Demon Ending before college started again. Fantastic game, will probably replay it again eventually. Easily my favorite game in the MegaTen series.
